Triad interaction source term computed using the Lumped Triad Appproximation (LTA) of Eldeberky (1996).
The parametrized biphase is given by:
0.2
beta = - pi/2 + pi/2 tanh ( ----- )
Ur
where Ur is the Ursell number.
The source term as function of frequency p is:
+ -
S(p) = S(p) + S(p)
in which
+
S(p) = alpha Cp Cg,p (R(p/2,p/2))**2 sin (|beta|) ( E(p/2)**2 -2 E(p) E(p/2) )
- +
S(p) = - 2 S(2p)
with alpha a tunable coefficient and R(p/2,p/2) is the interaction
coefficient of which the expression can be found in Eldeberky (1996).
Note that a slightly adapted formulation of the LTA is used in
in the SWAN model:
- Only positive contributions to higher harmonics are considered
here (no energy is transferred to lower harmonics).
- The mean frequency in the expression of the Ursell number
is calculated according to the first order moment over the
zeroth order moment (personal communication, Y.Eldeberky, 1997).
- The interactions are calculated up to 2.5 times the mean
frequency only.
- Since the spectral grid is logarithmically distributed in frequency
space, the interactions between central bin and interacting bin
are interpolated such that the distance between these bins is
factor 2 (nearly).
- The interactions are calculated in terms of energy density
instead of action density. So the action density spectrum
is firstly converted to the energy density grid, then the
interactions are calculated and then the spectrum is converted
to the action density spectrum back.| [in] | A | Action density spectrum (1-D) |
